For as long as Isabel can remember, she’s been a rogue. Her parents are deceased; she has no pack, no mate, and no one at all except for her older brother Ben. She’s grown used to being a nobody, the butt of others’ jokes, and for the most part, alone.

But during a routine errand gone wrong, Isabel stumbles onto a pack’s territory and comes face to face with a fierce—and devastatingly attractive—shifter the likes of which she’s never seen or felt.

Isabel is certain this is her mate. But will he accept her, a nobody rogue? Or will he reject her to maintain his status in his pack?

With growing danger at every turn, Isabel finds herself in the center of a desperate war between amassing rogues and a fearsome pack, working not only to uncover the mystery of what happened to her once-happy family, but to win over the man she is certain is the love of her life.

Rejected by the Beta

“God, I hate you,” I mutter as I throw myself onto the bed.


Damien is watching me from the doorway, “You know I can help you feel better.”


“No thanks,” I give him a nasty look. “You’re the reason I’m in this position right now.”


“You’re in this position because you’ve grown lazy.”


I hiss, “I would smack you if I could move.”


“Aargh!” I scream into the bed in frustration.


Then I feel a hand stroking my hair, “I’ll have Fera bring you some muscle relaxing potion. It’ll make you feel better.”


My eyes fill up with tears as I feel my whole body ache, and I mumble, “You’re such a jerk, Damien. I swear. You didn’t have to go so hard on me.”


I don’t know why I always get so vulnerable when he’s gentle with me. 


“Will you stop crying if I say sorry?”


“I’m not sad-crying!” I growl, embarrassed. “I’m angry crying. These are tears of anger!”
